Ex.MAyoR GRACE, MR. DANA AND OTHERS

GOTH REGIMENT.
IL William OBrien does not carry with him
from this town pleasant recolections of his treat-
nlent it will not be the foult of the men who AID
| heads of the various Irish organizations and whd
last night came together in the Hoffman House ii
a big dinner which they had organized in his
honor. 1t meant as q brilliant wind-up to the
checkered but, withal, triumphant progress Of the
editor OF United Ireland throughout the Cana-
dian Dominion and throughout q good portion on
this country during the short period of six weeks.
and brilliant wind-up it certainly 1t 10
safe to say that representative body Of Irsh-
Americans have never come together In New-Yorlc
to honor any Irish leader Parnel himself included.
Ibis was not alone account Of O'Brien's per-
sonal popularity, but also because Of the way he
acted in relation to the demonstration In Union
square on Saturday. This shown in special
manner by the way in which his speech was res
ceNed. speech that bristled in every line with
sarcasm. when referring to John McMaclSin, the
chairman OF the United Labor party, "who certain-
", TO quote the orators words, "was not on
hand when danger ahead in Ireland during
Years past. and who it is not probable will be on
hand either to give advice in the more trying
danger which is still impending" .,
1t impossible to find room for all those whd
had tickets and for those who had not tickets
all. Huge punches Of flowers were on the tables
lI1sh flags and United States flags covered tho
walls of the dining-room SO completely that moth.
Ing else but shamrocks or Stars and Stripes could
be seen. handsome floral piece in the form OF
a cross was presented to Mr.. OBrien when he toole
his seat 1t intertwined with shamroclxs,
and on 1t there was this inscription: God
ireland. Home Rule. From a Friend
